I'll never forget....
Fishing up in Canada.... The CNR passed right across the lake in a narrow area. We were fishing near the bridge, there was a current created there which made Walleye fishing good there around dark thirty.
We're minding our own business....fishing away....and here comes this big freight about 7 engines a hundred and some cars....we could hear this thing comming miles away....sound really carries over water.
Leading this thing....is this totally destroyed GP40....the whole front end was gone...no cab....smashed in on itself.
That particular night, I had picked up some guys who were fishing on the bridge who worked for the CNR and took them out to the center of the channel where the action was in my boat...being a nice guy.
When that freight came out of the bush, I was like what the hell?
I was promptly informed that...it was commom practice...it was a Moose Catcher.
